Design and pre-flight performance of SPIDER 280 GHz receivers
E. C. Shaw, P. A. R. Ade, S. Akers +79
In this work we describe upgrades to the Spider balloon-borne telescope in preparation for its second flight, currently planned for December 2021. The Spider instrument is optimize…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Weighing distant clusters with the most ancient light
Mathew S. Madhavacheril, Cristóbal Sifón, Nicholas Battaglia +58
We use gravitational lensing of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) to measure the mass of the most distant blindly-selected sample of galaxy clusters on which a lensing measurem…
A Microwave SQUID Multiplexer Optimized for Bolometric Applications
B. Dober, Z. Ahmed, K. Arnold +27
A microwave SQUID multiplexer (MUX) has been optimized for coupling to large arrays of superconducting transition-edge sensor (TES) bolometers. We present the scalable cryogenic…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: A Catalog of > 4000 Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Galaxy Clusters
M. Hilton, C. Sifón, S. Naess +146
We present a catalog of 4195 optically confirmed Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) selected galaxy clusters detected with signal-to-noise > 4 in 13,211 deg of sky surveyed by the Atacama…
The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: DR5 maps of 18,000 square degrees of the microwave sky from ACT 2008-2018 data
Sigurd Naess, Simone Aiola, Jason E. Austermann +59
This paper presents a maximum-likelihood algorithm for combining sky maps with disparate sky coverage, angular resolution and spatially varying anisotropic noise into a single map…
Improved Plutonium and Americium Photon Branching Ratios from Microcalorimeter Gamma Spectroscopy
Michael D. Yoho, Katrina E. Koehler, Daniel T. Becker +15
Photon branching ratios are critical input data for activities such as nuclear materials protection and accounting because they allow material compositions to be extracted from mea…
